From frustration to ₹20 crore: The story every founder needs to hear. What do 20,000 MSMEs know about accounting that you don’t? GimBooks is a startup from #Chhattisgarh making waves! Imagine battling paperwork when all you want is to grow your business. This was the struggle for Yash Agrawal and Ujjwal Agrawal, who turned frustration into innovation and built #Raipur's first Y Combinator-funded startup. Starting as a simple invoicing app in 2017, GimBooks is now the go-to accounting solution for over 20,000 MSMEs in India. Why? Because Yash solved the problems no one else would: ❌ Traditional bookkeeping? Outdated and clunky. ❌ Expensive accounting software? Too complex for small businesses. ❌ Pen and paper? Still used by 85% of MSMEs. GimBooks proved that simplicity wins. With just a mobile app, MSMEs can now manage: ✅ Invoices ✅ Ledgers ✅ Taxes and GST filings It’s affordable, Indian, and built for small businesses. And the results? ₹7 crore in FY24 revenue, with a goal of ₹20 crore by FY25 🚀 Here’s the real lesson for young founders: ❌ You don’t need to build something big. ✅ You just need to build something people want. So: 📌 Listen to your audience. 📌 Solve their pain points. 📌 Remember - small steps lead to big waves. At GRG Gen Nxt Incubator, we believe in empowering #founders to chase their visions, just like Yash did. We offer #mentorship, #workspaces, and a #community to bring your ideas to life.

If your solution isn’t compelling or different enough, it won’t get the traction you need. 🚨 Mistake #2: Hiring the wrong people. Your team can make or break your startup.

Don’t let hubris or fear hold your startup back. And finally, watch your cashflow! Overspending can lead to hard decisions like layoffs. Let’s avoid that.
